CMM *Melody foaled a palomino pinto colt on 3/12/14*

She's such a pretty girl - and that certainly looks as though that could be a pregnant tummy. How exciting!!

I have been so stinking busy trying to catch up on a lost month! Lol Also i homeschool both of my boys and we have been working very hard, we are almost finished! Yay!! So it has been leaving me very little time to sit down at the computer! But I have been checking on everyone almost daily, just haven't been able to comment to much!

Dove is soooo pretty! Awesome photos too! I love taking pictures and it looks like you have a knack for it too! The one with your sister and Dove crossing their legs is too cute! Thanks for sharing them. Dove looks pregnant to me!

 

[countrymini]

Wow, Dove looks absolutely gorgeous!

 

[Eagle]

Wow she really is a pretty girl, she has a gorgeous head

Have you tried putting your hand on her tummy just in front of her udder whilst she is eating or drinking? With a tummy that size I would think you would be able to feel a foal.

Great pics by the way

 

PRETTY, PRETTY girl! I'm guessing yes to pregnant,too!

Dove is gorgeous!! What a beautiful girl you have (and your others as well).

Thanks everyone!!!

Cassie no someone beat me to her

I really liked her too! Mindy pop in as often as you can

Renee no I haven't yet but will, she does have the start of a little edema (fat pouch) right in front of her udder like Summer did when I got her. You can also tell by her udder that she has had at least 1 foal, my guess is several.

Dove is really a pretty mare, I agree! What lovely pictures you took of her!

 

[Never2Mini]

What a pretty little mare

 

[lexischase]

New pics of Summer from today. No changes. Probably shouldn't have taken udder shots after she got exercise... LOL

 

Looking good!!! Just love her face with that defining blaze!

 

[Eagle]

she looks great,

 

[countrymini]

Looking good. She is such a cutie

 

[lexischase]

Just wanted to share a photo of Summer and Dove FINALLY meeting yesterday

 

[SummerTime]

Awwww so sweet!!!

 

[countrymini]

cute

 

[AnnaC]

Aww bless them!

If those pictures are of Summer's udder after exercise then she looks as though she's making great progress. I'm sorry but I cant remember if she's a maiden mare or not. If she is, then I think her tummy is looking quite good too! I know she looks as though she has quite a while to go yet but these maidens can be a funny lot - some making you wait for ages and some catching you totally unawares. I know that you are keeping a really good eye on her, but just watch for all the possible signs that she might be getting close and not just her udder and her tummy.

Have you been able to bring her back home yet - and will she and Dove be living together when you do - they are such sweet pair!

 

Very nice picture of two beautiful girls!! Keep good watch, as Anna said, they can be very tricky -- !

 

[cassie]

aww LOVE that pic! I can't like it as I have already reached my quota for the day... (I only just woke up LOL, but I forget that this is an american site LOL it will refresh soon hehe)

as Anna said Summer is looking great! that Udder is looking so good

won't be long now!!

 

[lexischase]

Ok Heeerrrreeeeeee we go!!!

Just popping on here for a few minutes as I just got in to grab a sandwich and change just to head back to the barn. My friend is watching Summer till I get back.

I found wax on both teats at 5 pm today!!! Then tested her (clear) milk and she tested at a 6.4 on the foal time strips at 8:45 tonight!!!

Foal tonight or tomorrow????????

Anyone else have experience with the foal time strips and accuracy? Or waxing and how long till birth?

SOOOOOO EXCITED!!! I feel like I have been waiting for years with this mare.
